Here’s just some of the crit I offered on photo 5. The full crit is on the Flickr page. http://www.flickr.com/photos/spudart/4176022349/
The classical figurines in this photo is far more dynamic and intriguing when placed in the environments you created. The rich vibrant colors in the figures interact exceedingly well with the crazily earthy colors of the metal structure. The strong giant vertical metal form powerfully crashes down on the tiny, delicate Christ child. Yet, while at the same time there’s an incredible calmness and serenity to the scene because of the solid symmetrical composition you carefully crafted.
